About Us

HEALING THE BODY AND MIND 

Founded fifteen (15) years ago, NeuroPsychiatric Hospitals is the largest hospital system in the nation providing care to patients with both neurological and medical needs. We are unique in that we serve a population which others have been previously been unable to, largely due the patient’s underlying medial issues. Our facilities maintain an inter-disciplinary focus using a multi-specialty approach for both neuropsychiatric and complex medical care issues. This proven approach provides unrivaled quality care for all of our patients. With nine current hospitals across Indiana, Arizona, and Texas, we are continuing our growth to ensure better access to our unique model of care.
